Anels red

[Plymouthblade]

if I had been shouted obscenities at while having an opponents hands on the back of my neck after being deliberately elbowed earlier I would have done the same

 

[blader]

Then you’d also have been sent off

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

He fell for it simple really.

 

[Plymouthblade]

So that’s fair ?

 

[Champagneblade]

Should have just goaded him with the score. “Just remind me the score mate” and blown a kiss.

 

[blader]

So that’s fair ?

Yep they’re the rules

 

[Flumps]

Ref had no choice. Bassett achieved exactly what he was aiming for.

I think he's an embarrassment to football to resort to that however he will have known Anel has a short fuse and was looking for it. He's been a pro in the English leagues for long enough now to know how his actions are met (since he's regularly carded, sent off or banned) he deserves his red.

I'd be getting pissed off as well but there's a chance he just cost us 2 points. I like Anel but he has to get control of his emotions. However I would be interested to know what was said.

[Jimmy Fleck]

Now he’s gonna be missing for Oxford, Sunderland and West Brom. That’s the biggest worry.

 

[Danny_Blade]

Anel was simply sent off for pushing him. Bassette pushed him also in the first place. Either both should've been sent off or neither of them.

From what I could see on the replay the ref saw it all as well.

 

[1973Blade]

Stupid from Anel.

 

[Plymouthblade]

You can’t write the cov cunt out of it

Six of one half a dozen two yellows

Fuck fair it was totally and utterly brain dead- Anel wasn't having the best of games - yes the kid wound him up but FFS he's got to be more professional than that, he plain and simple snapped. He cost us 2 points, he's out for 3 matches, he put the fans through a 45 mins of excruciating watch, all for what? To slightly scratch the opponents neck. It was so dumb it was unbelievable.

To get a point after that was pretty heroic. Well done the team for helping him out, but he needs to be shown the video again and told 'never ever ever - do you do that again..

He was having a really poor game before his brain fart

At which point, I would point you towards the size of your pay packet, your responsibilities as a professional footballer to your teammates and your fans and remind you that as an elite athlete with international level experience you can’t react like you’re playing in a Sunday League pub team

pushing someone is not a red card offence.

Retaliating by pushing someone by the throat clearly is.

Retaliation has always been a red card. He may have gotten away with a yellow card for a push in the stomach.

Law now states:

"In addition, a player who, when not challenging for the ball, deliberately strikes an opponent or any other person on the head or face with the hand or arm, is guilty of violent conduct unless the force used was negligible."

We should be ok without him for the Oxford game, we’ll miss him against Sunderland and West Brom though.

A silly red card, hope it only costs us the 2 points dropped today.

 

[Plymouthblade]

So his hands on the back of Anels neck is irrelevant ?

Depending how the others are doing. Few seemingly picking up some injuries, albeit small ones. If they recover in time we should manage

 

[ben1987]

The rat face weasel cunt knew exactly what he was doing and executed it perfectly.

He led with the elbow in the fall earlier on purpose. That could’ve been a red on its own.

It’s either two yellows or two reds for me for the actual incident. Anel should’ve kept his cool but if Anels sent off for pushing him in the neck then grabbing the back of Anels neck ought to be equal punishment imo.

 

[AWetFlannel]

So his hands on the back of Anels neck is irrelevant ?

Yep

 

[programmechap]

He obviously said something to Anel which caused the latter to snap. But as has been said, at this level, you don't react to verbals.

 

[Coily]

Fair to say Bassette will get the warmest of Bramall Lane welcomes for the return, reserved for shithouses like Ainsworth.

 

[Geordie Blade]

The wink says it all ...

He’s a complete and utter winker.

 

[Cheesebored]

He got a yellow for it. Anel needs to look at himself. Fucking stupid.

 

[91stMinute]

Would like to know anyone who eventually wouldn’t have snapped against a little shit like that. He’d been shithousing, cheating from minute 1. Diving, deliberately leading with an elbow into Anels face when on the ground, yelling at him n grabbing the back of his neck. Who knows what else was going on off camera. You can say naive, unprofessional, should’ve known better, should use experience to not react but, at the end of the day he’s a human being and all human beings have a snapping point. Mark my words that Bassette will not last the season. All clubs/players will now be aware of him and someone will crock him. He is a marked man.

[moody1889]

Basette should have been sent of for a deliberate arm to the face the standard of officiating was poor again.

That said Anel was foolish I just knew what was coming though I was just hoping he would ignore him.
